Adrien Broner is Good For Boxing

Broner provides a different kind of entertainment.
Trying to compare him to the Provodnikov-Alvarado Face/Off is a little silly. It's apples and oranges. At the end of the day, as "compelling" as that may have been, no one cares about those two.Comment

Broner has the villain role on lock, which is really a great career move because you only need to win every so often against minimal competition if people are willing to see you get beat.
Really most of the time in sports now a days it is so bland, but in boxing every so often you still get brash ****y guys like Broner and they are good for the sport even if they may not be all that great at the sport. Broner takes it to the next level but in a sport like boxing I don't see a big issue with it.Comment

Some of the stuff he does is a little crass but you do need guys who put themselves out there and with social media most athletes do not want to open themselves up to any kind of widespread condemnation from the mass media.
I would take a Broner over a weirdo like Shawn Porter or a geeky passive aggressive oddity like Wlad.
Broner is puerile you know where you are with and some of the stuff he says is funny. If he was respectful to all opponents post fight I would not have any issues with him whatsoever.Comment

I stand by this after tonight's fight.
Broner is still very flawed but is exciting to watch both outside and in the ring.
He got caught clean a few times and always responded like a fighter, coming back even stronger. That knockdown at the end was great.
He never got the credit he deserved for the heart he showed in the Maidana fight eitherComment
